mostly they've been going after the hamas government compound. so we know that the police headquarters, for example, was flattened. the compound where the head of the hamas headquarters exists, that was hit really hard. we also have seen ourselves several rockets. in fact, just to the right of us, there were four rockets that went up loud enough to make us duck. we saw rockets also in the area where we were, where the building was flattened, a three-story apartment building where the families lived. again, some were told the air strike was coming and evacuated. some didn't get the call, didn't leave, and they ended up being injured. israel saying that they're looking to just do targeted air strikes. very specific spots. but as you know in this densely populated city, the civilians are getting caught in this crossfire. it's been a very, very tense time for the civilians in gaza. for them, it feels like war here. victor? >> sara sidner for us there. >>> hamas puts that number at 900. it's a constant threat for the israeli people. our fred pleitgen

hamas is claiming its own trophy. the group's military wing says it has shot down a military f-16 and damaged two other israeli aircraft. israel denies losing any aircraft. egypt is trying to stop this war before it is too late. cairo's intelligence chief is spearheading talks to end the violence. but on the border, peace looks like an unlikely prospect. our senior international correspondent, ben wedeman joins us now between the border between israel and gaza. ben, ground war, are we about to witness that? >> reporter: i don't think immediately, don. i think there's still time needed to get the israeli military ready for a ground invasion. keep in mind that gaza is an area just twice the size of washington, d.c., with a population of 1.5 million people. any military force that goes in there has got to contend with the possibility of a lot of civilian casualties and a fair amount of resistance, from hamas fighters. now, what we're seeing here on the border are intense preparations, all night long. we've been watching
